In part two of Diana's conversation with Scotty Aemis, they delve into the complexities of adopting children from traumatic backgrounds and the challenges that come with it. Scotty shares practical advice on finding trauma-informed counselors, the importance of creating a safe environment for children, and the necessity of establishing trust before enforcing discipline. They discuss how integrating trauma awareness into various facets of life, including church and social activities, can significantly aid in the healing process. Scotty emphasizes the need for parents to provide a stable, loving environment rather than focusing on correcting behaviors. The episode concludes with resources for connecting with trauma-informed support and announcements about a new trauma-focused book and ministry services. 00:00 Introduction to the Podcast 00:33 Recap of Part One with Scotty Aemis 02:00 Choosing the Right Counselor 03:34 Creating a Safe Environment for Traumatized Children 05:25 Navigating Family and Social Situations 08:16 The Role of the Church and Faith 12:07 Final Thoughts and Resources 14:40 Conclusion and Farewell Scotty Aemis is passionate about helping parents navigate childhood trauma. After he and his wife adopted two children, they found themselves learning everything they could about helping their children thrive. Everything that felt instinctually “right” was actually not helpful for children trying to heal from trauma. That set him on a journey to develop out my PSR (Positive Safe Relationships) Approach to parenting. It's helpful for all children and parents, but especially those navigating childhood trauma. https://www.childtraumasherpa.com/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/1002238933611804 Website: https://dswministries.org Email: diana@dswministries.org Subscribe to the podcast: https://dswministries.org/subscribe-to-podcast/ Social media links: Join our Private Wounds of the Faithful FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1603903730020136 Twitter: https://twitter.com/DswMinistries YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxgIpWVQCmjqog0PMK4khDw/playlists Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dswministries/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DSW-Ministries-230135337033879 Keep in touch with me!

SEASON 10 The Learning Leader Daily Leadership Tips and Discussions Thank you for listening. I'm Paul Grau Jr., the host of this show, and I'm excited about Season 10 and hitting the ground running in 2025. We have over 100 episodes in Season 10, and we will continue with the focus of “The Learning Leader” and/or as we refer to it here at The CLC Team, “The Expanding Leader. Every episode will primarily focus on the lifelong journey of expanding your knowledge of leadership, and I will try to give you a daily takeaway to put what you learn into action. My goal is that you learn something that you can take immediate action on, and see how powerful expanding your leadership can be.   Let's talk about how safe of an environment your work center is for the leader, and whether or not a leader can control how safe it is for themselves.   Grab the book The Art of Influence: Persuading Others Begins With You by Chris Widener. I highly recommend this book for you and your team to go through together and to talk about every paragraph because there are leadership lessons on every page! The Art of Influence: Persuading Others Begins With You:   https://amzn.to/3VCfmNF   Here are links to some books I've mentioned in various episodes. If it's listed, I highly recommend it! BTW, These make great Christmas stocking stuffers for the leaders in your life!!   “How To Win Friends & Influence People,” by Dale Carnegie https://amzn.to/3AJ7q69 “Getting To YES, Negotiating Agreement Without Giving In,” by Roger Fisher & William Ury https://amzn.to/4fptLET “Positive Intelligence: Why only 20% of teams and individuals achieve their true potential and How You Can Achieve Yours”  https://amzn.to/4ekoltz A Great Book on Self Talk: “What to Say When You Talk to Yourself'” by Shad Helmstetter, https://amzn.to/47rO3uu “High Road Leadership: Bringing people together in a world that divides.” By John C, Maxwell, https://amzn.to/4cWxury **To learn more about how Paul can walk you and your team through a 12-week High Road Leadership Mastermind, contact him at Paul@CLCTeam.com and put “High Road Leadership” in the subject block.   MORE Books below.  Have you ever wondered why it's so difficult for a group of leaders to norm or be consistent? Well, it's because every leader is unique and has their own style and way of leading their team. By coming together and forming a bond in your organizations leadership team, you can begin norming better than ever before. I use the DISC assessment with every client and team I work with and have found it to be a real game-changer for the entire team. This is certainly no different when you have a group of leaders together. In order for them to work together in unison, they have to begin by knowing each other very well. That's where the DISC comes in, so I will mix the DISC behavioral styles in throughout this series. I am a DISC Certified Trainer and Consultant and have worked with behavioral styles for over 20 years. I am certified through the John Maxwell Leadership Team and have worked with hundreds of teams.

Lee talks through the critical role of questioning in successful change management. Drawing from his extensive experience since 2006, Lee emphasises that while tools and methodologies are essential, the true key to effective change lies in understanding and asking the right questions. He argues that change practitioners should prioritise developing their questioning skills and the principles behind those questions rather than solely focusing on tools. By engaging the minds, hearts, and hands of individuals, change practitioners can facilitate meaningful transitions and foster a culture of ownership and engagement. Tune in to explore how shifting the focus from tools to thinking can lead to more sustainable and successful change initiatives. KEY TAKEAWAYS Prioritise Questions Over Tools: Successful change management should focus on asking the right questions and understanding the principles behind those questions, rather than solely relying on tools and frameworks. Engagement is Crucial: The ability to engage with people is critical for successful change. Change practitioners must work to understand and connect with individuals to facilitate a positive transition. Understanding Change Dynamics: Change is fundamentally about transitioning people from one state to another. This requires a deep understanding of the thinking, habits, and behaviours of those involved in the change process. Create a Safe Environment for Thinking: It's essential to foster an environment where individuals feel safe to express their thoughts and engage in meaningful discussions about change. Focus on Meaningful Outcomes: Change practitioners should aim to create clarity around goals and desired outcomes, ensuring that these goals resonate with the people involved, making them feel real and meaningful. BEST MOMENTS "Our ability to work with people, our ability to engage with people is critical in the success of landing change."  "It's not about tools, it's not about people, it's about thinking and our ability to ask the right question."  "If you want to create new thinking, new habits, new behaviours, you need to create more thinking by asking better questions."  "Don't ask what tools do we need to teach our change practitioners. Ask what questions need to be created in our change practitioners."  "Success is changing the thinking of our people, engaging the heads, engaging the hearts, engaging the hands in a meaningful way."

In this episode, Dr. Carol McMakin and Kim Pittis delve into a variety of topics related to Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) and its applications. They discuss eye fatigue from excessive computer use, the impact of environmental changes on comfort, and specific FSM case studies, including a patient in Rome whose dura issues were treated successfully.  The conversation also covers the connection between different body parts, the role of the dura versus fascia, and the importance of understanding underlying pathologies. Additional insights include the relationship between chewing, vagal tone, fascial principles, and the synergy of breath and balance. The episode emphasizes the value of creating a safe environment for healing and the interconnectedness of all bodily functions.   01:45 Patient Case Study: Dura Treatment 05:15 Understanding the Dura and Its Importance 09:51 Fascia vs. Dura: A Deeper Dive 18:13 Autoimmune Conditions and Vagal Tone 24:40 Inflammation and Pain Management 29:34 Vagus Nerve and Vocal Cord Treatment 32:49 The Cerebellum: A Dictator in the Body 33:55 The Interconnectedness of the Body 36:13 Creating a Safe Environment for Healing 37:19 FSM Sports to FSM Rehab: A Necessary Evolution 42:05 The Importance of Flexibility in Treatment 47:14 The Role of FSM in Various Medical Fields 55:30 Upcoming Events and Courses   In this fascinating exchange, we dive deep into the interconnectedness of the human body, and how various techniques and insights can lead to profound healing. We gathered insights from dedicated practitioners delving into the complexities of dural attachments, fascia interactions, and the significant role of the vagus nerve. Let's unwrap these concepts and explore how they contribute to improving overall well-being.   The Complex Symbiosis of Dura and Fascia Understanding the intricate relationship between the dura and fascia is fundamental to appreciating how our bodies function and respond to treatment. The dura is akin to an invisible thread running from the head to the tailbone, affecting everything in its path. When the dura is tight or restricted, it can limit movement, as noted by the experience of a patient who could not bring their knee to their chest due to restrictions in the dura. This highlights the dura's vital role and challenges us to consider how "soft tissue" like fascia responds to the deeper, less tangible, structures beneath it.   The Role of the Vagus Nerve Our exploration wouldn't be complete without discussing the vagus nerve, often heralded as a gateway to wellness. Turning up the vagus nerve can have profound effects on the body, aiding in managing autoimmune responses, and contributing to overall health when appropriately activated. It's a crucial component in creating a state of balance, influencing not just our physical posture but impacting emotional and mental states as well.    Breath, Balance, and the Body The connection between breath and balance was a Eureka moment for many practitioners, revealing how the cerebellum (balance) and diaphragm (breath) share the same frequency. This synergy between breath and balance underscores the idea that treating one system without considering the others could limit therapeutic outcomes.   Rethinking Inflammation and Pain Pain and inflammation are often misunderstood as inherently negative. However, like a guiding light, they inform us of deeper issues within the body. By addressing the root cause, whether that's repairing the inner structures or adjusting neural inputs via the vagus nerve, we contribute to a more comprehensive healing process. It's not just about quieting the discomfort but understanding its message.   Creating Safe Environments for Healing The practitioner's role, therefore, is not just about alleviating symptoms but creating a safe environment where the body feels permission to move freely. This involves identifying why certain muscles are protecting or splinting against motion and addressing those underlying causes. Manual therapy, when combined with a nuanced understanding of neurobiological responses, can facilitate profound changes.   Everything is Connected to Everything This enduring phrase encapsulates the essence of what these discussions reveal. The interconnectedness of body systems means that a shift in one area impacts the rest. Whether it's the unexpected impact of upper cervicals affecting the opposite leg or the subtle changes induced by chewing patterns, everything is interlinked. A comprehensive approach to therapy should always respect this intricate web.   The Ongoing Journey The body's wisdom is both profound and mysterious. Through continuous learning, shared knowledge, and advancing techniques, practitioners can help unlock even deeper layers of healing. Whether through direct manipulation of physical structures or influencing neuro-biological pathways, the journey is one of constant discovery—a testament to the complexity and beauty of the human body.  

In this enlightening episode, we explore the profound connection between safety and healing. Our guest delves into the critical role that a safe environment plays in fostering emotional well-being and personal growth. By creating spaces where individuals feel secure, we can unlock the potential for transformative healing experiences.The conversation highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing complacency in our lives. Often, we settle into routines that prevent us from fully realizing our potential.

Sales teams often pivot without understanding what is broken or not working, leading to constant changes and lack of measurement. Buyers have always wanted to buy in a way that suits them, and sales processes should be buyer-centric to drive success. The lack of time and tools for training and coaching sales teams hinders their ability to improve and adapt. Lustre provides a solution for salespeople to practice and receive targeted feedback, leading to improved performance and coaching. Creating a safe environment for reps to practice and make mistakes is crucial for their growth and development. Senior reps should continue to practice and maintain mastery to stay at the top of their game.

Skills learned in improv theater, such as thinking on your feet and building rapport, can be valuable in sales. Continuous improvement and a growth mindset are essential for success in sales.

Creating a Foundation of Trust by Building a Safe EnvironmentTrust is the foundation of your mentoring relationship. Above all else, your mentee has to believe that you are good and that you want them to succeed. The author Stephen Covey says “Trust is the glue of life. It's the most essential ingredient in effective communication. It's the foundational principle that holds all relationships.”But what if your mentee has experienced hard times? What if there is trauma in their past or they have been betrayed by those who should have been taking care of them? Because of their histories, it is often difficult for these children to trust the loving adults in their lives, which often results in perplexing behaviors.While a variety of mentoring strategies may be successful with some children, children with histories of harm need caregiving that meets their unique needs and addresses the whole child.That is why even some of the most successful parents are confused when what worked with their child does not work with their mentee. Trust must be established between the mentor and the mentee before you can take any steps of progress in your mentoring relationship. And it can take some time. The reality is that some mentees trust their mentor in three weeks while it takes others over a year. But we can't give up. We must continue to show up to build trust. The best way to build trust is to create a safe environment. Get down on their level. Make eye contact with them. Give them space and go at their pace. Smile often. Give appropriate touch.Use words of affirmation often. Undivided attention.Be patient. When your mentee raises their emotions, you stay calm. Listen to them. This works with eight year olds and eighteen year olds. Even if they look like grown adults, we must always remember that they are still children on the inside.This safe environment will create a nurturing relationship built on a foundation of trust. For some of our kids, they are used to adults telling them all that they are doing wrong. Some rarely see an adult smile and take time out of their day to notice them. You get to be the exception. Keep showing up with a smile on their face. Create a safe environment. Be a stable, consistent adult that they can count on. If your mentee lives in a world where chaos and instability is their normal, meet them with peace and stability. --Please follow @youcanmentor on social media and give us a 5 star rating!

In this episode of Business Problems Solved, Lee reflects on his recent completion of the London Marathon and shares five key takeaways that helped him achieve this milestone. Lee draws parallels between lessons from his marathon experience and their applicability in business settings, emphasising the significance of proper fueling, being in the moment, perseverance, support, and training to achieve success.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Fuel Brain and Body Properly: Focus on providing the right fuel through food, thoughts, and sleep to ensure optimal performance. Be Present in the Moment: Embrace each moment fully to enhance the experience and make better decisions. Keep Moving Forward: Continuously take steps forward, overcoming obstacles and challenges along the way. Support and Encouragement: Provide the right level of support and encouragement to foster accountability and motivation. Train Properly: Ensure proper training and development to equip individuals with the skills and capabilities needed for success. BEST MOMENTS "I had a dream the night before the marathon, in the dream, I didn't complete the marathon. I just couldn't get to that distance. I couldn't do it."  "I really did enjoy running 26 miles in front of all those people. It was just an enjoyable experience because I was in the moment."  "Nobody comes to work to do a bad job, but are we helping them do the best job they can? And to do that, they need to fuel their brain and their body properly."  "What can we do to keep moving forward? Sometimes moving forward, I mean, suggests that if something's not working, we need to keep doing it."  "What can you do to ensure and encourage everybody that you're working with is fully trained and is able to do the job that they need to do every single day."  HOST BIO You can contact Lee Houghton on 07813342194 Lee@leehoughton.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/lhoughton/ For the last 15 years, I have been a multi-sector internal or external business improvement consultant, building the improved capability of individuals, teams and businesses.
